Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has heard about or tried the weber cold smoking unit? It's only £23 to £25.

Have been looking at the proq cold smoker basket thingy, but that is another tenner, so if the weber one is just as good...


Thanks.

Haven't used the weber one. I have a pro q one that I use in my weber and it is very good. Came with great little book and sawdust as well.

This is the package I went for...didn't realise it was over £50.
The dust lasted a long time though and the book has been and continues to be a great source of info.

Is that the bigger one or the small one? Basket that is.

Not too worried about the dust to be honest as i have an entire dustbin bag full of oak from a friend.

Not sure. I get plenty time off it. Not done a really long smoke for a while but I think I got 12 hours off it when last I did.

I have the smaller ProQ, works very well for cold smokes.

You get 10 to 12 hours of smoke pretty easily.

Great for smoked salmon!
